Holiday's Overrrrrrr

So. My last night in Jakarta :(:(:(
What is it with holiday. Days passed too fast!

I forgot things too fast and too often, so I better write it here :)

I'm grateful for this 12 days I spent in Indo.
Grateful for the Bandung trip.
For meeting ups with high school friend, with impromptu dinner with The Royal's friend.
For the sweet quality brunch with my best friend.
For another not-so-impromptu-yet-eyeopening reunion with college friends.
For arranged meeting and every roads taken in between with beloved.
I'm grateful that I got a chance to accompany my sister through the tonsil removal surgery (eww much) and for the teeny-tiny sofa shared with mom for 2 nights in a row.
I'm grateful for every meal taken, for I never got any diarrhea this time around. LOL.
I'm grateful for Jakarta's traffic that, so far, is friendly and bearable. Hahah.

However, above all turns and events, I am most grateful for the people involved.

I'm grateful for my little family.
For my mom and dad and (not-so) little sister. For the latest addition, dear Muffin.
Home feels, well, homey.
Like going back to my childhood where I am well taken care of lol.
I always feel a little 'blue' on my last night at home, because really, being a child is just too nice.
Less obligation, less responsibility :P
12 days was enough to make me fall in love deeper with little Muffin.
She's around 7 months now.
Longer than ever, you little sausage dog with Dumbo earsss.
She's playful and cheerful and I think it's because she is greatly loved.
She likes to follow people around and suddenly lay on her back, asking, no, begging us to rub her silky tummy hahaha. I love you, Muff.
Just now, she looks super sleepy, but she's unable to sleep, knowing mom and I were still wondering around.
So she lays between my door and my sister's so she could watch us both.
How sweet is that? :):)

I'm grateful for my friends.
Friends, best-friend, college mate.
I'm grateful for sandpaper people lol.
I'm grateful for almost-more-than-best-friend.

I learned a lot during this past 12 days. 
That each one of them were there for a purpose.
I'm grateful for the love and loss and tears and laugh and all kind of emotions that makes me human.
I'm grateful that above all my stubbornness, God is patient and kind.
And even when I got hurt because of all the choice that I've made myself, He is faithful and never let go.

I've been meaning to share about this word that I can't seem to got rid from my head this few days.
But save it for later.
I need to sleeeeep.
I'm taking Muffin for a walk tomorrow morning :P

Oh, here's some pics of us.






Night peeps :)
Holiday may ends, but the Hope lasts forever.
Much love!

When God Made a Promise

“I know this is too fast. And please don’t ask me why, because I don’t have the answer. I don’t know why.” “I won’t ask you why. Because I know.. It’s God.”   Wkwkwkwkwwkwkwkwkww duh supershy padahal biasanya ga tau malu. I’m still getting used to this. But those who viewed our IG feed and saw the pic posted in FB would know what this is all about. The Promise of God. It’s been there, mentioned the wholeee time in my earlier posts, yet unnamed. I’ll try to recall the whole story. Some details would be lost in translation because there are wayyyy TOO MANY. Haha. Fyi. I’VE BEEN WAITING SOOO LOOOONG TO SHOUT THIS OUT LOUD. So, here goes. Last Sunday, R asked me out to dinner. A few days before, he’s mentioned this fancy place and I calmly (I think) said, “Yes, yes why not” while inside I was [insert screaming emoji here] knowing that this is not a normal dining experience. OMG. I was so glad it’s through a text message, otherwise he would see ...

My Miracle

So this weekend, my mom and Febe was in town. In fact, I've just sent them off a few hours ago. WOW! Wow God wow! That's all I can say.. I'm loving every second I spent with the two. Good food, good times. But above them all, good talk. The best kind of talk where God is so evident, so powerful, so ever-present, in everything that we said. Sometimes we tend to talk about God's miracle like it was so far away, so abstract, when actually it is right there in front of us. So tangible, we can grasp it with our hands. For example, when Febe mentioned about Dad and the accident and his sickness. We can see how God allowed his pride to be crushed. And out of a new-found humility, God shaped His character : more Christ, less of himself. I knew who my dad was, and I know who he is now. And all I can see is miracle written all over him. Through the worst the world can assume, God brings in His best for our good. Not to mentioned how God put a heart o...

I Used to be Love Drunk

Nahh.. I'm not gonna bragging about love drunk or such. That's the song I'm listening while studying now. LOL. I'm such a multitasker. Ever heard a quotation about love that inspired you so much you can be a poet over night? I think it's true. I've been there. Trust me, I know. When the love I felt was so, so, so overwhelming almost physically. Yes, I think love's one hell of emotion that can make human do brave, crazy, stupid stuff. Love is good. Indeed. But love also destructive. (See Helen of Troy. Stupid Paris, what was he thinking?? Lust maybe. Not love. Whatever. I wasn't there) Anyhow, after some deep thinking, I can also add one more strong emotion that motivate human to do braver, crazier, stupid-er stuff than love do. It is hurt, i think. A bruise on your heart. That can be healed over time, or not. At least, that was the thing that inspired me more than falling head over heels in love. See the evidence below. so what. if u can put your finger ...
